  Meroitic Kingdom - Forgotten...

  The Land of Kush, an ancient and powerful civilization, thrived along the banks of the Nile in what is now Sudan. Situated south of Egypt, Kush was a land of vast deserts, fertile floodplains, and rich natural resources. This region played a crucial role in shaping the history of northeastern Africa, serving as a bridge between central Africa and the Mediterranean world. The rise of the Kingdom of Kush was deeply influenced by its geography, trade networks, and interactions with neighboring civilizations. 
  The Nile River was the lifeline of Kush, providing water for agriculture, transportation, and trade. The river's annual flooding deposited nutrient-rich silt, allowing the Kushites to cultivate crops such as barley, wheat, and sorghum. This agricultural abundance supported growing populations and enabled the kingdom to expand its influence. The vast deserts surrounding Kush acted as natural barriers, protecting the civilization from invasions while also encouraging the development of trade routes that connected Kush to Egypt, the Red Sea, and beyond. 
  Kush's wealth was largely derived from its abundant natural resources, particularly gold, iron, and precious stones. Gold mines in Nubia were among the richest in the ancient world, making Kush a major supplier of gold to Egypt and other civilizations. Ironworking became another defining feature of Kushite industry, allowing the kingdom to produce advanced tools and weapons that strengthened its economy and military. The Kushites also controlled trade routes that transported luxury goods such as ivory, ebony, and incense, further enriching their civilization.

  "Henry Gee presents a pithy, fascinating account of the stages of biological evolution. ... a meditative and friendly listening experience. —AudioFile on A (Very) Short History of Life on EarthWritten and read by the award-winning author of A (Very) Short History of Life on Earth: a history of humanity on the brink of decline.A Next Big Idea Club Must-Read SelectionWe are living through a period that is unique in human history. For the first time in more than ten thousand years, the rate of human population growth is slowing down. In the middle of this century population growth will stop, and the number of people on Earth will start to decline—fast. In this provocative book, award-winning science writer Henry Gee offers a concise, brilliantly-told history of our species—and argues that we are on a rapid, one-way trip to extinction. The Decline and Fall of the Human Empire narrates the dramatic rise of humanity, how a scattered range of small groups across several continents eventually inbred, interacted, fought, established stable communities and food supplies, and began the process of dominating the planet. The human story is relatively brief—the oldest fossils of H. Sapiens date to approximately 300,000 years ago—yet the spread of our species has been unstoppable…until recently. As Gee demonstrates, our population has peaked, and is declining; our environment is becoming inimical to human life in many locations; our core resources of water, arable land, and air are diminishing; and new diseases, simmering conflicts, and ambiguous technologies threaten our collective health. Can we still change our course? Or is our own extinction inevitable?There could be a way out, but the launch window is narrow.Unless Homo sapiens establishes successful colonies in space within the next two centuries, our species is likely to stay earthbound and will have vanished entirely within another ten thousand years, bringing the seven-million-year story of the human lineage to an end.With assured narration, dramatic stories, and his signature sprightly humor, Henry Gee envisions new opportunities for the future of humanity—a future that will reward facing challenges with ingenuity, foresight, and cooperation.A Macmillan Audio production from St. Martin’s Press.

  Offers 40 concrete, practical tools and activities that will supercharge learners' ambition, organisation, persistence and determination. Where some education books focus on how individual teachers might sequence and deliver pieces of information in the clearest, most helpful and supportive way, engaging as many learners as possible, this one is different. This book looks at how you can help learners manage their workload and take control of their own knowledge and skills. It explores the characteristics, qualities and habits of successful students and shares forty replicable tools and tactics that all students can use immediately, both in and out of the classroom – activities that will help them to set goals, work more efficiently, organise their resources, revise more effectively and solve problems. This book is a perfect introduction to the VESPA approach, as well as being a practical addition to previous resources. The VESPA Handbook will help teachers develop the five key characteristics and behaviours that students need to be successful: vision, effort, systems, practice and attitude. When it comes to achieving academic success, these characteristics are crucial. Suitable for teachers, tutors and parents who want to boost academic outcomes in 14–18-year-olds and equip them with powerful tools and techniques in preparation for further education and employment.
